How to use the same mask several times

I want to create a simple oval to use as a mask for a bunch of graphics I want to integrate buttons.

What is the best way to do it?

I tried to create an oval shape with rectangular shape tool / oval/customized using this tool path option, and allows me to create the mask on the layer you want.   Is there a way to save this route to be reused on all layers so that each image is cut to the shape and size the same?

I also tried to use an oval shape as a mask of clipping which was very effective, but could not find a way to maintain transparency in this field has been forcing me to have a background color.

Thanks for any help.

Apply the mask to a group and put all your other loose inside...

  • How to extract the same song, several times using different bit rates or formats and store all the digital music files in WMP 12 default on the same HDD music library

    Using Windows Media Player 12 (w/under Windows 7), "can I ripping the same song, several times, using different bitrates & and/or formats and store all the digital music files in the music library by default WMP - 12, on the same hard drive?

    1.) #1 goal: tear up the same song repeatedly, w / "different rates" as a WMA file.

    2.) #2 goal: tear up the same song repeatedly, w / "different rates" as an mp3 file.

    3.) #3 objective: NOT to each subsequent copy (version) of the song, deleted & and/or replaced by the previous version of the song [even].

    4.) question Bottom Line Up Front--> is Windows Media Player 12 (included with the Windows 7 operating system) are able to achieve '#1 objectives; #2; & #3 above?

    5.) details/example: I want to tear the piece "Maria Maria by Carlos Santana" to my laptop as a Windows Media Audio [WMA] file.  In addition, I would like to rip the song 'Maria Maria' three several times with 3 different bitrates in format WMA; and, as an MP3 file.  Therefore, my final result wished (after the extraction process), will take place the four 4 audio files split up as follows: (a) 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped @128 Kbps bitrate.  (b) ' Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped to the "Variable bit rate; (c) ' Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped commissioning "Lossless." and (d). 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: MP3 file. Ripped @256 Kbps bitrate.

    6.) my preference: I do NOT want to rename the file (s). {for example, 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana' renamed/changed for--> "Maria_Maria_by_Carlos_Santana_128kbps.wma",...} 'Maria_Maria_by_Carlos_Santana_256kbps.mp3 '; etc.}.  In addition, I am not concerned about the additional disk space that will be consumed after multiple copies of the same song with different speeds of transmission and different formats.

    7.) my experience w / Windows Media Player 10 (w / the operating system of Windows XP): using WMP - 10, my goal (s) described above is not a problem at all.  Simply insert the CD purchased by Carlos Santana, containing the song "Maria Maria"... Select the desired Format (WMA; WMA VBR; WMA Lossless; or mp3)... Select the desired flow rate (WMA... 128/160/192kbps_mp3: 128/192/256/320 kbit / s; etc.) ; and click on the "RIP" button to start the copy process on the hard disk of of Carlos Santana's "Maria Maria".  This process (w / WMP-10) would result in having the same song, copied on the hard disk, with levels of quality different "audio" (via the different bit rate settings); regardless of the format (MP3/WMA) which was chosen.

    8.) my experience w / Windows Media Player 11 (w / the operating system of Windows XP): using WMP 11, to described above of my objective (s) could not be reached e-a-s-i-l-y.  The problem with WMP - 11 - in short - which was after the desired selection "Rip settings" tab 'Options' of WMP - 11 (i.e., Format & Bit Rate) and heart-wrenching piece wanted to {'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'} a moment later/second, WMP11 remove / would crush the previous version of the song [even].  Therefore, the program would NOT allow the user to have multiple copies of the same song on the hard drive of the PC; which obviously restricts a user to have the freedom to choose what level of quality digital audio, they prefer to listen to.

    9.) the ability to have multiple copies [at my descretion] of the same song (on my hard drive) with different bitrates and formats in my music library, is important for me because it has a direct impact on "how I enjoy MY music ', and in what form (audio quality), I choose to listen to my music.  {For example, when I exercise and listening to my camera, digital audio player (Zune), a song ('Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'), will usually be torn off at a lower rate due to the unit of capacity reduction of storage - compared to the storage capacity of notebook PCs/desktop/external hard drives PC.}  However, when I listen to my music through my home cinema or entertainment system (which contains a hard disk dedicated with a large storage capacity), I prefer to load the entertainment system with digital music files that have been ripped to WMA... with the bit being rate-setting is for the: settings "WMA Variable Bit Rate" or "WMA Lossless.

    10.) there you have it.  This is my first post in this forum.  I hope that [detailed] explanations, will be sufficient to encourage these "with knowledge & the hands on experience" using Windows Media Player 12 (as well as with WMP-10/WMP-11 respectively), by providing a [step] "How-to"... "solution to my situation.  It would be highly appreciated.  I'm looking forward-'the solution' - and relevant suggestions & and/or community feedback regarding my request for assistance.

    * Thank 'All' (that would) in advance... For your time & Assistance *.

    Certainly, you can, but I would say that they be in different folders, for your convenience as well as Windows.  You can create one for each debit/format, then you will know who is who.

    In Windows Media Player, on the toolbar, select Tools, Options, Rip, and then select the flow you want first, rip music, then change the folder (higher on the same tab) and rip again... and so on and so forth.

    When you are at home on your home theater, you can use the 320 bitrate folder, when you transfer to the Zune, you can use one of the lower bitrate files (although I personally tear it up to 320 and let the Zune reduce as he wants, even with the iPhone via iTunes, hard drive space is not really a problem here) my server has several hard drives, and I can always add more if and when space is low!

  • How to use the same mask, stencil, etc for several layers? Photoshop equivalent of the masked group?

    Hi I spent over half an hour for search manual, forums and the Internet and still can't find the answer. Help, please!

    For example, in a model with 5 or more layers, I want to use the same mask or stencil or what can hide layers 2,3 and 4 but areas layer 5 and all other possible layers below should not be affected.

    1. Before dialing the layers that you want to hide and apply a matte for the demo using the mask. Think to the Dial as an equivalent to the creation of a layer group.
    2. Use the effect on each layer you want to hide. It's easier to do if you apply mast set once and then create an animation preset to apply to the other layers. Just get mast set to do what you want it to do on the first layer, select Set Matte in ECW or in the timeline panel, and then go to the Animation > Save animation preset. Select then all other layers you want to apply the set matte to apply the preset.
    3. Put the mask at the bottom of the layers that you want to hide and turn on the switch to preserve transparency, then this group in composition with other layers of nesting.

    Here's another tip. You can set a custom color for all the layers you want to use the mast, then use the custom color for a group selection. This can make things easier down the line.

  • Help please - component video using the same clip several times

    Hi people,

    I have a 9 minute video I want to cut into pieces and make a 3 min video. I searched the help system and Forum, but found nothing - very probably (not being is not a native speaker) looking for the wrong keywords.

    How can I add the same clip several times to a movie? If that has been resolved, I could do the rest with setting- and outpoints and would.

    Thank you in advance.

    Christoph

    You can place the clip on the timeline and use the Split Clip (small scissors under the monitor icon) to split your clip. Place the cursor where you want to trim your clip, and then click the icon of the scissors. Move the cursor to the next position, and then click the icon of the scissors again. Then press DELETE on your keyboard and that article will be deleted and the gap will be closed. If you wish, you can take small sections, you created and drag them around to change their positions.

    Once you have edited your clip, you can export the section 3 minutes as a DV - AVI to use repeatedly in your video. All you need to do to export is file > export > Movie. If you have several clips on your timeline you must place the work area bar (WAB), the gray bar above the timeline, on the section that you want to export. Then in the window export movie go into settings and for the beach, select work area bar.

    You can then reimport the 3 minute clip in your project and use it as many times as you want.

  • Can I fade in and out on the same track several times in After Effects?

    Hi all

    I was wondering if it is possible to fade in and out, on the same track, several times. Like, I have this audio I want to fade at the beginning-48db to + 0 dB, and at the end of the song I want it to go from + 0 dB to-48db. I don't know if it's possible, but I can't get it to work. Can I get more than two keyframes for the same way?

    Thank you for taking the time to read my question.

    Marco van Lindt

    I do not recommend the use of AE to do any sort of audio work, but yes. You can have hundreds of keyframes by track. If you set the value, we must add another keyframe. There is no that?

  • How to use the same services-config for servers the and remote.

    My flex project works very well using the bottom but when I download my flash on the server I do not work, all the files and related paths are the same execpt remote is a linux server.

    I think the problem is the line


    " < endpoint uri = ' http://localhost/domainn.org/AMFPHP/gateway.php "class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/ > "

    but I don't know how to use the same services-config for servers the and remote.

    I'll back up a bit.

    Breakpoint URLS are defined as follows in the services - config.xml:

    https://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amfsecure

    The meaning of each of the tokens is clearer when we see them as part of a complete url. If your context root is set to http://localhost , then I have no idea how your application runs in any environment.

    If you leave the server.name and server.port chips in your configuration file, then they will be replaced when executing according to the location from which your application is served. However, the context.root token is replaced at the time of the compilation based on the value that you specify in Flex Builder or when calling mxmlc.

    In order to reuse your file services - config.xml, you must use the same context-root on your development environment and to your deployment environment.

  • I am asked to select an application every time I try to open a file that is linked through a Web site. How can I tell firefox to use the same application each time?

    I have a Web site; www.designed4submariners.com. on several pages, I created links to images that are found in a download folder. Whenever I click on one of these links on the current site (using Firefox as browser), a dialog box appears to ask: do the Firefox with this file? Under question is a drop-down menu that has "TextEdit (default)", selected next to an option button. The image file opens in a browser window when I select Firefox in this menu drop-down. I can't tell Firefox to open all similar files using Firefox. How can I solve this problem because I have to go through the same process every time that I try to open one of these links.

  • How to: using the same control panel for several vi and reproducing change to the control panel.

    I created a labview project that contains about 40 vi.  Each vi has a joint control panel which is a group of ip address, or address of the port and the parameters that are passed high-level vi at low level vi for the purpose of control and access our daq cards.  As this control panel exists in all the vi and must not be the same there is a problem when the need to make a change or update the controls during development.  The problem is how long it takes to go and change the control panel of each single vi.  I wish I had a way of reproducing a change in the Panel of control through all six simultaneously.

    All controls in the control panel are in a bundle, so all values are passed to 1 thread.

    I tried to turn the Panel in a sub vi and this way I can just "create control" and have output parameters maniuplate vi, but if I update the vi, I still have to go back and create a new control for each vi under the control has changed.

    I tried using secondary and the creation of the control panel in a sub vi which is displayed in the secondary, but gives the undesirable consequence of not being able to view or change the settings of the control panel if the program does not work, as pristine as when sub-panels program does not work.

    Is there a another way to display the front panel of a Subvi next using a panel of void?  Is there a better way to propagate changes in a bundle in a series of vi?

    Yes a def type might help you and I would take the next step to make a strict type def if you want the look to be the same on all its bodies. You can also view this nugget on Type definitions for more idea about it.

  • How to use the same script for several buttons

    Hello

    I have just started using flash if any help would be great!

    I create a blockbuster game, I have a grid of 20 buttons and I need (individually) to turn blue on red and click double click. I managed to do it with the first using this code;

    --------------------------------------------

    var click: Boolean = false;

    BN1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, bn1click);

    function bn1click(event:MouseEvent):void {}

    clicked = true;

    var newColorTransform:ColorTransform = bn1.transform.colorTransform;

    {if (clicked)}

    newColorTransform.color = 0 x 064258;

    }

    BN1. Transform.ColorTransform = newColorTransform;

    }

    /////////////

    BN1.doubleClickEnabled = true;

    var doubleclicked:Boolean = false;

    BN1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, bn1dclick);

    function bn1dclick(event:MouseEvent):void {}

    DoubleClicked = true;

    var newColorTransform:ColorTransform = bn1.transform.colorTransform;

    {if (clicked)}

    newColorTransform.color = 0xac1e23;

    }

    BN1. Transform.ColorTransform = newColorTransform;

    }

    --------------------------------------------

    Now, I'll have trouble doing the same thing to work for the rest of the buttons, they are each named bn2, bn3 etc. They need to work individually and stay blue/red when clicked. I tried to list them as addEventListener orders but not with not a lot of success!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    Tomo

    To do this is to use arrays to follow the buttons and their properties.

    var buttonList:Array = new Array (bn1, bn2, bn3);

    var clickedList:Array = new Array();

    var doubleClickedList:Array = new Array();

    Then use a loop for to assign functions and properties for each button:

    var thisMany:int = buttonList.length; This will give you the number of items in the buttonList array

    for (var i: int = 0; i

    buttonList [i] .addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick); assign the function click on each button

    buttonList [i] .addEventListener (MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, btnDClick); assign the double-click function

    clickedList.push (false);  Add a value of false for each key in this table

    doubleClickedList.push (false);

    buttonList [i] .doubleClickEnabled = true; Set the property of double-tap for each button

    }

    function btnClick(event:MouseEvent):void {}

    var thisButton:int = buttonList.indexOf (event.target);  know which button has been clicked as an element in the table

    clickedList [Ceboutonselectionnel] = true;  Change the value in the table

    var newColorTransform:ColorTransform is buttonList [Ceboutonselectionnel].transform.colorTransform;.

    {if (clickedList [thisButton])}

    newColorTransform.color = 0 x 064258;

    }

    buttonList [Ceboutonselectionnel].transform.colorTransform = newColorTransform;

    }

    function btnDClick(event:MouseEvent):void {}

    var thisButton:int = buttonList.indexOf (event.target);

    doubleClickedList [Ceboutonselectionnel] = true;

    var newColorTransform:ColorTransform is buttonList [Ceboutonselectionnel].transform.colorTransform;.

    {if (doubleClickedList [thisButton])}

    newColorTransform.color = 0xac1e23;

    }

    buttonList [Ceboutonselectionnel].transform.colorTransform = newColorTransform;

    }

    Now you can have any number of buttons, just add their instance names in the table above.

  • Loading the same image several times

    I'm trying to dynamically load one image several times in flash. Basically, I want to end up with two movieclips mc1 and mc2 that contains the image. I am currently using the load (connected to the ProgressBar) component to dynamically load the image. It works very well for the loading of the image once, but I don't really know how to create a second clip with the image.

    Here is my code for loading the first image:


    var mc1:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    var listener: Object = new Object();
    Listener.Complete = function (eventObj:Object) {}
    nextFrame();
    };
    imageLoader.addEventListener ("complete", listener);
    MC1 = imageLoader.content;
    imageLoader.load (imgURL);


    But everything that I tried to load mc2 with this same image has failed. I tried 'mc2 = imageLoader.content', 'mc2 = mc1', "attachMovie", "duplicateMovieClip", called imageLoader.load () twice on the imgURL and creating a second component Loader and load the image again. All of these methods have failed. Most of them can load mc1 alright and sometimes even mc2 appears on the scene, but in the mc2 AS is always undefined.

    Can someone point me in the right direction for the loading of multiple copies of the same image? It really shouldn't be so hard, does it?

    Well I found a solution. It turns out that Flash does not reproduce the content dynamically loaded as an image into a movieclip. But there is a small class called BitmapData that will do exactly what I was looking for. Here is the link that I got this info from: http://www.senocular.com/flash/source.php?id=0.174
